Sam, I thought you might like this. My friend who owns an insurance agency has all his sales people using iPads. He hekd an online conference yesterday and one of the subjects covered was to ask his staff if they were having the hot corner issue with their new iPads. He thought the discussion was funny and sent the transcript to me for laughs. Names removed of course:
Is anyone elses iPad running hot? Not the 2’s, the 3. Whatever its called.
Mines runs a little warmer than my old 2.
Yes but is it hot?
I’d say it’s warm. Just warm. Not hot, warm.
Hey all, mines not hot or warm.
Is this about the hot corner problem I read about?
Yeah is yours hot?
It’s tepid.
Mines lukewarm, like all the food at Mitchell’s Diner.
I must be the unlucky one because mine is pretty damn hot.
Is it scorching?
No it’s not scorching but its more than warm
So its more than warm but not scorching? Is it piping?
You people are getting carried away. It’s hot.
Is it so hot you can’t use it?
I can use it.
So pretty damn hot but not so hot you can’t use it? Isn’t that warm?
No, warm would be toasty. If it was just toasty he wouldn’t say it was pretty damn hot.
You people don’t work enough. It’s too hot in my opinion, ok?
So it’s boiling?
I’m out guys.
I hope he didn’t just burn himself.
How could he burn himself? I would think he’d put it down if it was getting too hot to hold, no?
Not if it was broiling. Broiling can sneak up on you. It’s warm, warm, warm, then all of a sudden it’s broiling!
No no that’s boiling, not broiling. Boiling can sneak up on you. It's simmering one second then next thing you know its boiling.
So it’s not boiling?
He didn’t say if it was boiling. He didn’t answer when we asked.
Right that’s when he left.
I think he was a little steamed.
Or hot under the collar.
It’s time for lunch, let’s go to Mitchells and get some tepid burgers...
